Voodoo’s Introduction to Javascript.pdf
This is another JavaScript introduction, Voodoo’s JavaScript Introduction is written by Stefan Koch. In the download page, available format for Voodoo’s Javascript Introduction is only HTML and PDF, the easier to read is the PDF format.
Another format is available such as post script document, unfortunately while I checked the URL for download, the current domain is for sale ..
The pdf version is available in 12 parts, if you download it all, it will just occupy about 528KB of your hard disk, it’s less than a megabyte. Each part covers one deep topic on Javascript.
